LOS ANGELES (Feb. 13, 2014) —
Square Enix Inc., the publisher of SQUARE
ENIX® interactive entertainment products in the Americas, is
pleased to announce the release of its new title
Deadman’s CrossTM for mobile. The game is now available for download for
iPhone, iPad and Android devices.

Deadman’s Cross is a zombie-themed collectible card
battle RPG, and the latest creation from the same team that brought
you the multimillion-download hit
Guardian Cross®. The outbreak of an unknown virus has
devastated the world and left it overrun by the living dead. You
must hunt down these Deadmen and build your own undead horde to
fight for both survival and entertainment. Take on jobs from other
survivors to earn experience and resources as you seek to become
the world’s foremost Deadman hunter.

Cards in
Deadman’s Cross are collected through a novel
hunting system. In the style of a fully 3D first-person shooter,
gun down zombies wandering the city to add them to your morbid
collection. From famous historical figures to people from all walks
of life and animals from around the globe, the game features over
100 unique cards with stunning artwork, with many more to come in
the future!

Much like
Guardian Cross,
Deadman’s Cross offers far more than strategic and
in-depth card battles. Complete jobs for a host of colorful NPCs to
reveal their unique storylines and unravel the secrets surrounding
the cause of the zombie apocalypse. Team up with other players from
around the world in an all-new Clan system, and together tackle
missions with large-scale objectives. With all this and more,
Deadman’s Cross brings new life-after-death to the
card game genre!

Story

In June of 2030, a state of martial law was declared in the
United States of America. But since then, both the government and
media have fallen silent. All that can be heard from the confines
of your apartment are the echoes of screams and gunfire. Obeying
the federal order to remain indoors, you have passed the last three
months alone in your home. Now, driven by survival and gripped by
fear, you unbar the door and step out into the unknown.

Deadman’s Cross in a crossover campaign held with
